It is truly an honor for us to have Talaat McNeely of His & Her Money joining us on today’s episode as he shares his expertise. So if you are ready to leverage the power of the second-largest search engine in the world after Google and grow your YouTube channel then stick with us as we give you a breakdown of the things that you need to consider in growing your YouTube channel.
“This is YouTube and people like authentic content. They don’t want you sitting there like a robot and trying to have this polished scripted message. They want you to be talking like you are talking here in the podcast, just being real, being yourselves, speaking in your voice. Because people can definitely pick up when it’s like you are talking from a teleprompter. Even if you are not talking from a teleprompter but it feels that way, it feels rehearsed, it feels scripted, you are not going to have the same impact as you would just sitting there talking in your pure voice, blemishes and all, being real and raw. Because no matter what your lane is, what your subject matter is, there is a tribe of people who are just like you, who get your personality, your style and there is going to be plenty of people who don’t. And you want the people that are supposed to be aligned with you, align with you. So if you come and you try to create content that’s mass appeal that is super polished and you kind of hide your personality like you don’t let it shine through, you’re building a false audience. So you want to be authentic out the gate.” – Talaat McNeely
